I have the same DNS server setting on both PCs. I have a caching DNS server in the LAN, and both machines use it as their primary DNS. Both have the secondary DNS pointed to OpenDNS' 208.67.222.222.
Could be the network. I'm trying some more tests. --- mike t. ----- Original Message ---- From: GOvvin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Philippine Linux Users' Group (PLUG) Technical Discussion List <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, September 6, 2007 10:13:10 AM Subject: Re: [plug] "slow" internet access on some sites in Ubuntu It could either be network- or browser-related. I'd try the network first. Have you tried comparing ping results (say google.com) for both machines? Are you using a wireless network? Also check your DNS settings and make sure that you prioritize the DNS server of your ISP over your router's.

One is a WinXP machine and the other is running Ubuntu 7.04 (Feisty). But have no firewall active and have the same Primary, Secondary (and even Tertiary) DNS servers configured. Accessing Yahoo! Mail is no problem in both machines. But while I don't encounter problem with Y! Mail in the XP machines, in the Ubuntu PC, images in the email (those that are linked from another site rather than embedded) are not being loaded completely -- mapapansin mo na sa lahat ng images mga 25% (topmost part of the images) lang ang nagload. Accessing Hotmail, the WinXP machine is able to login properly. The Ubuntu machine just hangs at "Loading Windows Live Mail". In some sites, it takes Ubuntu forever to load completely, in some sites the web page doesn't load. No problem with the XP machine visiting the same sites. What could be the problem? --- mike t. _________________________________________________ Philippine Linux Users' Group (PLUG) Mailing List [email protected] (#PLUG @ irc.free.net.ph) Read the Guidelines: http://linux.org.ph/lists Searchable Archives: http://archives.free.net.ph
